Fairtrade
No market is perfect, and when it comes to the international food trade, any well considered examination must conclude that it is not equitable, even when examined under the most free market ethos.
We can either rail against these iniquities, or we can do something about it. In this month's podcast we're going to talk about an organisation that is doing something about, and enables us to do something, about it too.

Eat the System
Food is part of everyone's lives. How that meal gets to our table depends on a large, complex and interweaving system. It includes growing, distribution and commerce, health provision government and community action, culture, and so much more. Join me as I attempt to unpick, and mull over all aspects of this system. I'll be joined by guest who are experts in their individual fields, but all passionate about the system that feeds our bodies, and sometimes our souls too.
